What is green computing?

Green computing refers to environmentally sustainable practices in the design, manufacturing, use, and disposal of computers and related technology. It aims to reduce the environmental impact of IT systems by maximizing energy efficiency, using eco-friendly materials, and encouraging recycling and proper disposal of electronic waste. Green computing also promotes the use of virtualization, cloud computing, and energy-efficient hardware and software to minimize carbon footprints. Organizations adopting green computing can lower operational costs and contribute to environmental conservation.
